If I had been a delegate to the First Continental Congress, I would have agreed to this course of action. Yes, the letter was the correct action to take.

<h3>Here are the reasons why I would have agreed to send a letter to King George III.</h3>

First, this was an injustice. American colonists worked so hard to make a living and the British crown always wanted more money from them.

That is why I should have signed the letter asking King George III to repeal the taxes that violated colonists' rights in the 13th. colonies.

American colonists were upset and tired of the British government. The English imposed severe taxation such as the Navigational Acts, the Stamp Act, and the Tea Act, among many others.

The First Continental Congress was a delegate's assembly held from September to October 1776 in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Delegates from twelve of the thirteen colonies assisted the gathering in Philadelphia.

Some of the delegates who attended the Congress were George Washington and Samuel Adams.

We conclude that if I had been a delegate to the first Continental Congress, I would have agreed to send a letter to the King of England asking him to repeal the taxes that violated colonists' rights.

Butoxors [25]
The correct answer is letter d. At the Council of Trent, the Catholic Church reaffirmed almost all of the doctrinal claims that Protestants criticized; this was a Catholic council that met in intervals from 1543 until 1563 it was gathered by Paul III; the settlement taken at Trent (a provincial capital of the Holy Roman Empire, located in Italy) provided the foundation on which a new Catholic Church would be constructed; debated some form of compromise with Protestantism, it ended by reaffirming all of the Catholic tenets challenged by Protestant critics

Why have an absolute monarch?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Short answer: More power due to theocracy.

An absolute monarch allows the government to control the wealth, status and life of the people. At first this may seem liberating but it could actually be good. Most people that were a monarch ran under a theocracy, they believed to have divine right from God himself. This would make the monarch the most powerful ruler, which means they would get to make decisions. As for the people they could always go to one person and count on one person for the greater good of their country. All decisions would be made by this monarch and the people wouldn't have to go through many. Change relied on changing the opinion of the monarch. If you had a bad monarch you are doomed and the people hate you. If you have a good monarch the people love you and you may thrive due to a better public ethic.

Most of the information was destroyed by the Spanish when they burned the Aztecs' books and papers. We are aware of these personalities because Spanish writers based their works in some way on them.

One of the key moments of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire, commonly known as the Conquest of Mexico or the Spanish-Aztec War (1519–21), was the beginning of the Spanish colonization of the Americas. Spanish conquistadors, their native allies, and the vanquished Aztecs all contributed accounts of the events in the 16th century. The Aztec Empire was defeated by a coalition of Spanish invaders, including tributaries of the Aztecs and, most importantly, the indigenous adversaries and rivals of the Aztec Empire, rather than just a small group of Spaniards. Over a two-year span, they joined forces to destroy the Tenochtitlan Mexica.
